This is easy enough to do. Here's the procedure.
Determine the ending point of the line. This can be signalled either with a single bar true or a
signal that goes true and stays true from that point onward.
Use LastValue(BarsSince()) to count the bars since the single bar spike was true or the solid true
was false. If you're using the second of these options then the result will be one greater than the
first option, and you'll need to subtract one to get the correct number of bars to blank. You now
have a constant of the number of bars to be blanked. If you don't use LastValue() then the number
can't be used in the subsequent Ref() functions.
The next step in the process is to shift the plot that number of bars to the right, then shift it
the same number of bars to the left.
Here's an example with the end of your code modified to remove the plot for 2004. Notice that the
inner Ref() is processed first so the plot you started with is moved to the right then to the left.
Hope this makes sense.
